I use PayPal to buy things on Steam, which means if I put money in today I won't be getting it until I've almost forgotten what I was going to buy, because it takes forever to transfer payments.

Anyway, I'm just concerned that this promo will only last a couple of days. Does anyone kmnow when the promo ends? Will "Add to cart" save the product as its current price, or will it change regardless?

Thanks. :)

I am assuming that its going to last until the game's release, but I am not an expert with this so.....

Ah, hopefully you guys are right. I've missed plenty of Steam sales because of PayPal.

Now, if only I could figure out how to get around that damn "Low Violence" sticker... :(

I use my regular savings account that I use with my ATM/EFTPOS card. I can do banking over the phone instantly, it's just PayPal that says it may take "3-5 working days" to process. I usually try to have money in PayPal, but sometimes sales and things sneak up on me.

I used to have the same problem, but you can get the instant transfer option when you attach a credit card. Any will do, even prepaid credit cards from convinience stores.
